Acetone is the solvent for most glues. Lacquer thinner may work also.

Sometimes the oil in peanut butter will help to break down the sticky stuff. Wal-Mart used to carry something called De Solv It. It was in the cleaner aisle near the dishwasher detergent or floor cleaner. It worked great!!

The bath oil SSS(Skin-So-Soft) by Avon is always a good bet! Let the SSS stay on the item overnight then wash it off with hot water and soap. Works all the time for me!

I use something called "goo gone" its a green liquid, and whipes away all the sticky and gooey adhesives. Target carries it. And it doesn't make your containers or any other material sticky, or greasy. It's so perfect, you'd think there is a catch! It's great stuff. Just remember its literally called "Goo-Gone."

Baby Oil works for the sticky stuff on bumper stickers, don't know if it will work for that but it's worth a try.

any oil base product, baby oil, vegetable oil, body oil even automobile oil, saturate the glue and rub off sometimes it takes two applications.
